And also consider that his brother's false rape allegation could be one of those where the alleged victim recanted, which is different than being tried and convicted for a false allegation. The alleged victim could have recanted for a number of reasons (pressure from the police, those close to his brother, the brother himself, emotional trauma, fear, wanting to just "forget about it," you get the idea), reasons that are not because the alleged victim lied about getting raped.

First OP is amazing she took control of a horrid situation and through fear she overcame and I find her amazing, her will and power to do this. I teared up reading what she did, Amazing and I hope she gets more confidence out of this.

You cannot assume his brother is a rapist on a sentence. A quick statement like this has a tendency to pick up traction, and mostly negative as guilt is implied. I do believe its a really tricky situation here. He and his wife and his father believed his friend and shocker the low down P.O.S. scumbag lied. That does not make the brother a rapist and even as food for thought comment seams benign you immediately stroked him with that wide brush he might be a rapist don't trust him either.

If we are guilty till proven innocent, my words are void. I saw this as a powerful story to take control in horrid circumstances and read it that way. I did not think lets form a rapist hunting party for a married couple that invited one rapist, therefore everyone they know could be a rapist too.

Here's the thing: some people lie about thefts in order to get money out of insurance companies, but insurance workers don't automatically assume the vast majority of robbery victims are liars. The fact that the groom was so quick to jump to the "most women are lying liars who lie" conclusion is troubling. If he readily believes this negative generalization about such a substantial portion of the population, then how else is his judgement compromised?

The brother may be innocent or he may be guilty (as a stranger on the internet, I'm choosing to believe innocent), but the groom is not a reliable character witness.
